The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) is an Indian stock exchange located at Dalal Street, Kala Ghoda, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. Established in 1875 the BSE is Asia’s first and Worlds Fastest Stock Exchange with a speed of 6 microseconds and one of India’s leading exchange groups and the oldest stock exchange in the South Asia region. Bombay Stock Exchange is the world's 11th largest stock market by market capitalization at $1.7 trillion as of 23 January 2015.〔(World-exchanges.org )〕 More than 5,000 companies are listed on BSE. ==History== The Bombay Stock Exchange is the oldest exchange in Asia. It traces its history to 1855, when four Gujarati and one Parsi stockbroker would gather under banyan trees in front of Mumbai's Town Hall. The location of these meetings changed many times as the number of brokers constantly increased. The group eventually moved to Dalal Street in 1874 and in 1875 became an official organization known as "The Native Share & Stock Brokers Association". On 31 August 1957, the BSE became the first stock exchange to be recognized by the Indian Government under the Securities Contracts Regulation Act. In 1980, the exchange moved to the Phiroze Jeejeebhoy Towers at Dalal Street, Fort area. In 1986, it developed the BSE SENSEX index, giving the BSE a means to measure overall performance of the exchange. In 2000, the BSE used this index to open its derivatives market, trading SENSEX futures contracts. The development of SENSEX options along with equity derivatives followed in 2001 and 2002, expanding the BSE's trading platform. Historically an open outcry floor trading exchange, the Bombay Stock Exchange switched to an electronic trading system developed by CMC Ltd in 1995. It took the exchange only fifty days to make this transition. This automated, screen-based trading platform called BSE On-line trading (BOLT) had a capacity of 8 million orders per day. The BSE has also introduced a centralized exchange-based internet trading system, (BSEWEBx.co.in ) to enable investors anywhere in the world to trade on the BSE platform. The BSE is also a Partner Exchange of the United Nations Sustainable Stock Exchange initiative, joining in September 2012.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://unctad.org/en/pages/newsdetails.aspx?OriginalVersionID=310&Sitemap_x0020_Taxonomy=ISAR%20-%20Corporate%20Transparency%20-%20Accounting;#6;#Investment )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bombay Stock Exchange」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
